CHINESE MEDICINE
INTRODUCTION
Based on the principles of yin (negative) and yang (positive), traditional Chinese medicine believes that each part of the human body is intricately connected to the other and has a self-healing potential that can be tapped successfully. Such therapy is an integral part of the nation`s cultural heritage. Developed over the course of more than five thousand years, the system is unique because of its complete theoretical framework, diagnostic methods, pharmacology and special methods of treatment, including acupuncture and moxibustion, deep breathing, and medical massage.
